Bill to pay Southern mail contractors for war losses debated
The House considered a bill to reimburse Southern mail contractors 375000 for losses from contract breaches at the war’s outbreak. Republicans argued contractors stole government property and conspired to destroy the republic, while Democrats and some Republicans urged payment. Debate covered Confederate archives and postmaster affairs, plus a broad appropriation bill for ministers and foreign missions and notes on the Berlin peace congress and Russo Turkish issues.
